IF YOU DON'T KNOW GOLDWINGS, (ASK SOMEONE WHO DOES) YOU MAY NOT KNOW THAT THE GL1500 REALLY UPPED THE ALREADY HIGH GOLDWING STANDARD FOR RELIABILITY AND LONGEVITY. MANY 1500'S ARE STILL GOING STRONG WITH 300K, 400K OR MORE MILES (NO, YOUR V-TWIN WON'T DO THAT) I'VE ACTUALLY SEEN A COUPLE OVER HALF-A-MILLION MILES, STILL GOING STRONG - NO OVERHAUL!! GOLDWINGS ARE KNOWN FOR BEING QUIET AND SMOOTH. THE 1500 IS EVEN QUIETER AND SMOOTHER THAN THE NEWER GL1800 MODEL. ALSO HAS MORE STORAGE SPACE AND A HIGHER LOAD CAPACITY THAN THE 1800 AND A SLIGHTLY MORE "CUSH" RIDE. ALL ARE QUIET AND SMOOTH BUT SOME MORE SO THAN OTHERS. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE. SHIFTS ESPECIALLY SMOOTHLY WITHOUT THE "GRIND" THAT A LOT OF THEM HAVE. THE '98 MODEL WAS THE FIRST YEAR OF THE "LAST 3" YEARS OF THE 1500. CHANGES MADE INCLUDED+++ THE STRONGER (VALKYRIE) TRANSMISSION ('97'S ALSO)++++ RE-DESIGNED EXHAUST SYSTEM++++ DIFFERENT SCRIPT FOR "GOLDWING" WORDING++++ AND WHITE INSTRUMENTS.+++ THE 1500 WAS THE FIRST 6-CYLINDER (STILL HORIZONTAL OPPOSED) STILL SHAFT DRIVEN, WATER COOLED, AND A NEW STANDARD FOR QUIET SMOOTH MOTORCYCLE TOURING.
